TULSA, Okla., Dec. 2, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Totally Green, Inc. (OTCPK:TLGN) Mr. Rob Philips, President of Totally Green, Inc. announced today that Totally Green's proprietary ORCA Green Machine™ has undergone a thorough engineering upgrade that may allow it to achieve new levels of composting technology. Mr. Phillips stated that, "It wasn't that the older version of the ORCA hadn't already distinguished itself in several challenging situations, but as we take the program to sites throughout the world, we are finding new challenges and objectives to meet."
White Oak Pastures, a beef processing plant in Georgia, has been taking care of its offal for several years, and using the effluent to fertilize its pastures. Mr. Will Harris, White Oak Pastures' owner comments: "We had a continuing problem with waste from our plant until we installed the ORCA. We have eliminated the odor and the unsanitary conditions while adding value to our operation. It was like finding money." Emory University is beginning its third year of successful ORCA operations. In many circumstances, the ORCA machine pays for itself by eliminating the tipping and haulage of the waste from cafeterias. It becomes the champion of overall cost savings initiatives in food service programs. The important environmental benefits facilitated by the ORCA are assisting Universities in carrying out green initiatives. The Whole Foods Store in Alpharetta, Georgia, disposes of over one thousand pounds of cuttings and food waste every day. "Their environmental efforts and sustainability philosophy fit the ORCA profile perfectly," stated Bob Humberstone, Totally Green Inc.'s Chief Consultant for the Orca Green Machine.
Totally Green's Vice President for the ORCA Green Machine™ Division, Ryan Casey, is also optimistic about the future role of on-site high speed composting. "With nearly thirty million tons of food waste each year in the USA representing twelve per cent of the total municipal solid waste, almost every agency that serves food may be able to short-circuit the high costs associated with their food waste disposal by the installation of one or more ORCA Green Machines™ in their facility."
The added benefit that comes from the installation of the ORCA Green Machine™ is the ability to collect and dispose of Totally Green's Green Bottle Spring Water bottles after use, along with food waste.
